As players take on the role of Basim, they’ll need more than just stealth and a sharp blade.
As more challenges are introduced, you must be more creative. Without the help of NPCs to infiltrate well-guarded places, your life as a Hidden One will be much more complicated.
In this guide, we’ll delve into the intricacies of the token system, shedding light on its types and how to obtain them, ultimately enhancing your gaming experience.
What Are Khidmah Tokens?
Khidmah Tokens, commonly known as Favor Tokens, are a currency you use to get NPCs to help you.
In Assassin’s Creed Mirage, diverse mechanics from earlier titles return, emphasizing the importance of specific NPCs who can assist you in blending in, distracting guards, or lowering your notoriety.
These NPCs require specific tokens, making it essential for players to understand their use and maintain a healthy token supply.
Although the Favor Tokens are somewhat versatile, and each can buy a few different things, there are only three types of Favor Tokens, or Khidma Tokens, in AC Mirage.
Here’s a breakdown of their uses:
Merchant Tokens
These tokens come in handy when dealing with the city’s numerous merchants.
They allow players to negotiate lower prices and can be used at blacksmiths and tailor vendors.
Traders offer a 10% shop discount when given these tokens. More Merchant Favor Tokens increase the discount by up to 30%.
Additionally, you can use them to open Token Chests, secure vendor discounts, and blend in with merchant groups to access restricted areas.
Scholar Tokens
Scholar Tokens are invaluable when interacting with scholars and musicians in the game.
Use them to divert guards’ attention through musicians or form moving crowds with scholars to facilitate social blending and strategic maneuvering.
Use them to engage musicians, who will distract nearby guards with their music.
Alternatively, spend them at the Cartographer in the Commander’s District, where you can acquire treasure maps to aid in locating valuable gear and collectibles.
Power Tokens
Power Favor Tokens cater to those in need of combat assistance.
Whether hiring mercenaries to eliminate enemies or causing distractions in guarded areas, these tokens are significantly helpful.
They also play a role in reducing Notoriety Levels, an integral part of Assassin’s Creed Mirage’s gameplay.
You can spend Power Tokens to bribe Munadis in order to lower your Notoriety Level.
How to Get Khidmah Tokens
Now that we’ve explored the types of Favor Tokens and what they do, it’s time to learn how to get them.
Luckily, the process is not that complicated. There are two main ways to get Favor Tokens in Assassin’s Creed Mirage.
Here are some effective strategies:
Pickpocket Commoners on the Streets of Baghdad
Roaming the streets of Baghdad and taking some coin purses is the simplest and easiest way to get a few Favor Tokens.
While you can’t ever be sure of what you get when doing it, there’s always a good chance you will get something out of it by investing just a few minutes.
It doesn’t take long for you to accumulate a variety of tokens without much effort.

Take Contracts at Hidden Ones’ Bureaus
Visit notice boards in Assassin Bureaus and undertake Contract Requests.
These quests are categorized by the type of token they reward, providing a targeted approach to token acquisition.
Keep an eye on the rewards offered, complete the missions, and earn the tokens you need.
Contracts are a reliable source of Favor Tokens.
Final Thoughts
In Assassin’s Creed Mirage, understanding the three types of Favor Tokens—Merchant, Power, and Scholar—is crucial because they open up various ways to make the game more interesting.
They can provide economic advantages, help you blend in with merchant groups, hire allies to fight guards, manipulate and distract crowds with music, and even bribe important people to make them forget your crimes.
Hopefully, with this guide, you can now use them better and get more whenever you need.
Now that you know how to use tokens, it’s also important to remember that being a Hidden One isn’t just about stealth and manipulation; you’ll also need to be skilled in physical confrontations.
Once you master all that Basim can do, this game will become way more interesting and more fun.
